Bees Shrug Off Kinboshi, 12-2
Eager fans turned out for a matchup between the Vesutan Bees and Kinboshi Kites.

The Vesutan Bees soundly defeated the Kinboshi Kites, 12-2, at Konohana Stadium, with catcher Akinari Nakamura a major reason why. He went 2 for 5 with a home run, while scoring 2 and driving in 5 for Vesutan. The winner was Masatoshi Sakai, who threw 129 pitches over 9 innings. The right-hander was charged with 2 runs on 6 hits.

The game turned with one out in the top of the fourth. That's when Nakamura hit a run-scoring single off Saimei Hayashida. It propelled the Bees into the lead, 3-2.

Kinboshi manager Frank Moore called the blowout loss "a real stinker."

Kinboshi now has a record of 4-7.
